It would be as hard that way to have

Draper and Morse used to take their
early pictures from q window of the old
university buildin', where Morse lived
I One OF their successful pictures was the
tower Of the Church Of Messiah, about
the size of playins card. The FIRST pict-
ures were all Of aem pictures Of buildin's,
streets and so on. But at last Morse took
portrait put the human face and figure
into a sun picture. This was step on
ward and upward; for as Morse took mis-
first object picture on the steps leadin' to
Prosch's cellar, so he took his first face
and figure picture on top Of the university
buildil', IN sort of studio he had
erected there on the roof, and which was
the first Photographic Studio ever
started in America.
The FIRST lady whose picture was ever
taken by the sunlight in this city was the
young daughter Of Professor Morse The
next lady taken was his daughters
bosom friend, and the pictures taken Of
these two are still in existence among the
choicest curiosities and treasures of Vas
sar college.
The first man in New York who made
- icy ulltL OuOAnC0S Va utth1u plIUu1CS VI
photographs was the instrument maker
Prosch, whom have already mentioned.
Prosch saw big thing in it. and opened
what he called 'sdaguerring gallery on
the corner Of Liberty street and Broad
way. His first sitter and customer was
Professor West, of tho old Rutgers female
institute, who was thus the very first
man who ever paid to have his photograph
taken, oil the other pictures up to this
time 1iayin' been taken ms an experiment,
free.
But the professor paid for his pictures
like a man, and from that time on the
business of talSin' pictures has hourished
lii New York. 1t would make pho
tographer sick nowadays to think how
Prosch had to get his sunlight for this
first picture. Flo had to hang big mir

so as to reflect the sunlight full on the

A Bridqe of Death.

WHITE RIVER JUNCTION, VI, Feb.
5.-No disaster more appalling in its
consequences is recorded in the an
nails of New England railroading than
that which occurred at $50 this
morning on the Central Vermont
Railroad. The accident happened
at White River Bridge in the town
of Endon, about four miles north
west of this place and half a mile
this side Of East Hartford. At $50
o'clock four passenger coaches of the
Montreal Express, heavily freighted
with pleasure seekers bound former
ry scenes of the Montreal Winter
Carnival were hurled from the edge
of an open Howe bridge, 600 feet in
length, while the train was running
at full speed, and were precipitated
with the bridge itself down one of
the widest gorges ofthe Green Noun
tain State. Seventy feet the cars
plunged down, their shattered frag-
ments resting on the icy surface of
the White River. There they were
burned to ashes, cremating nearly
forty human beings, killing a dozen
more and seriously, if not fatally,
burning and manning score Of
others.
Thirty-nine bodies in all have been
recovered from the wreck, and it is
positively known that forty-two per-
sons persisted, while there is proba-
bility that number of other corpses
will be found in the wreck or under
the ice ofthe creek. Just how many
persons were killed cannot be ascer-
tanned while there exists so much I'M
certainty as to the number on the
train. OF the bodies recovered ten
have been identified.
One Of the wrecked cars on the ice
has not yet been overhauled and it is
thought that at least twenty bodies
are in the debris. Should this prove
SO it will run the list of killed up to
over sixty. This will not include
those who may have been carried in
to the river through the ice.
The train consisted of three Pull
man sleepers, two passenger coaches,
a smoker and baggage and mail and
express, seven cars in all.

Millions for Defense. (

WASHINGTON, Feb. AFTER five
or six years of investigation and re-
ports the Senate ofthe United States
has decided to encourage the manu-
facture of steel for modern army ord
nance, armor and other army purpo-
ses, and to provide heavy ordnance
adapted to modern army warfare and
to encourage the same thing in rela-
ton to naval ordnance, armor, shaft
ing and heavy ordnance for naval
warfare. The two bills which passed
the Senate to-day for this purpose
were both Senator Cameron's and
were introduced December 1t, 1885,
and referred to the Select Committee
on Coast Defenses. They were re-
ported last May with slight verbal
amendment by Senator Hawley.
While each of these bills appropriates
$8,000,000 for this purpose the ex-
penditure of these sums is to run
over period ofsix years No mon
ey is to be expended except for pay
ment for steel, accepted and deliver
ed, and hence the plates will have to
be built before the contractors will
begin to reap the benefit of the act,
should it become law.

Victims of tho Billiards

HELENA, Mon, Feb. A-The Indi-
an Commissioners arrived at Cho-
teau last Friday night from the Black
foot Agency, after hard struggle
through the blizzard. They have
have been snow-bound at Choteau
ever since, with the.thermometer for
ty below zero. There is such scar
city of wood in Choteau that the
fences and unoccupied houses will be
burned if the storm continues. Six
to eight thousand cattle, strung along
the Teton river, are suffering greatly
for food. Fort Benton reports fuef
famine, with the citizens BURNING
fences and outhouses. They have
not enough flour and coal oil to last
fortnight. Maple Creek, n. w. T.,
reports a deplorable situation there.
At Assinaboine, yesterday, the Their
mometer registered fifty-seven below
zero. Sixty dead, cattle were found
in Glendive herd. Fargo, OAK,
reports each Blizzard seems more
severe and terrible than its predeces-
S0f. Inc 6hefmOmeter ranged De-
tween % and 80 below zero all day
Thursday, and east and west of this
point terrific billiards are raging.
The train from the east with four en-
gines was anable to make its way

Gus settlers are reported to have been
lost on the prairie, A man named
Sirius wandered about on the prairie
Wednesday night, having been lost
while attempting to go from his
claim to town, a distance of four
miles, and when found he was buried
in the snow-drift in which he sought
shelter. His limbs were frozen SO
badly that amputation will be neces-
sary, and it is thought he cannot re-
coyer.n

Wool-Growers Opposing Randall.

WASHINGTON, Feb. S.-Represen-
tatives of the wool-growing interests
say that the Randall Tariff bill con-
tains features that are full OF danger
to the wool-growing interests. The
worst one is the definition ofscoured
wool as that which shrinks less than
ten per cent. The bulkEofsscou
wool is not as clean as it is possible
to make it !; almost any lot in the
uslal secured condition will shrink
over 10. per cent, and in some cases
as high as Is per cent. 'e@Ns
1t is usually the practice, after
wool is secured, to oil it for the
cards, and it will then shrink at least
from IL to Is per cent. If Mr.. Ran
dall's 10 per cent. limit Of loss is ac-
cepted as the definition of secured
woolit will flood the United States
will foreign secured wool, shrinking
just little over 10 per cent. and
thereby be admitted at only the duty
of washed wool, namely: twenty
cents per pound. IA This, the wool
growers say, will ruin the .wool-gro u
ing business in the United States IN
little while, and hence, the Randall
bill, should it become a law, will
prove a calamity to this industry.

Civil Service Reformers' Salaries.

WASHINGTON, Feb. SIN reporting
favorable Mr.. Cox's bill TO increase the
salaries of the civil service commits
toner's from $4,000 to $4,000 the House
COMMITTEE on civil Service Reform
says review of the facts connected
with fixing these salaries and O con-
sideration of the labors now imposed
on the commissioners ought to con-
vince any impartial mind of the JUS
tice of the measure When the act
was passed it was regarded as mere
ly tentatives, and it was believed that
the commissioners duties would be
comparatively light and would not
require their presence at the Capital
half of their time. As this reform
has come to stay it is highly import
ant that the best talent should be
placed at the command of the Presi.
dent in order to secure the service Of
such men as are willing to fill the
office for reasonable compensation
and not except the position merely
through the hope of filling it tempo
rarily as a stepping stone to future
preferment.
